Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula used for any interest other then continuously is
A=P(1+r/n)^nt
so... r=rate in decimal form ONLY n=how often interest is paid t=time passed
A=3000(1+.08/1)^(1)(5) = annually
A=3000(1+.08/2)^(2)(5)
A=3000(1+.08/4)^(4)(5)
use you calculator to get the answer
it is good practice to use your calculator now because soon you will be using it for population questions and those need to be entered very carefully.
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
First, write an equation to represent the situation.
34 = 2a + 12
This equation works because your combined age is half of 68, so 34. If your age is a, then yours sister's age is a + 12. if you add your age to your sister's, you get 2a + 12.
Now just solve for a.
34 = 2a + 12
First, subtract 12 from both sides.
22 = 2a
Then divide both sides by 2.
11 = a
So you are 11 years old. If you need to check your work, your age (11) plus your sister's age (11 + 12, which is 23) is 34, which is half of your grandfather's age.
Answer:
2890 sq. meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the whole garden is 85 x 50 = 4250 sq. meters. Since the flowers take up 32%, that means the grass must take up 100-32, or 68% of the garden. 68% of 4250 is 2890 sq. meters.
Hope this helped! :)
Answer:
5/12 > 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
to see which is bigger, find the LCD of both fractions and whichever has the biggest numerator is the larger fraction.
the LCD of 5/12 and 3/8 is 24.
to get a denominator of 24 for 5/12 we would multiply the fraction by 2, which gives us 10/24
to get a denominator of 24 for 3/8 we would multiply the fraction by 3, which gives us 9/24.
10/24 > 9/24
looking back at the original fractions, 5/12 is the largest fraction
